To find the distance between the points (2, 5) and (7, 3) using the Pythagorean Theorem, we can use the distance formula:
\[ d = \sqrt{(x_2 - x_1)^2 + (y_2 - y_1)^2} \]
where \((x_1, y_1)\) is the first point and \((x_2, y_2)\) is the second point. Here, \((x_1, y_1) = (2, 5)\) and \((x_2, y_2) = (7, 3)\).
Now, we can substitute the coordinates into the formula:
\[ d = \sqrt{(7 - 2)^2 + (3 - 5)^2} \]
Calculate the differences:
\[ = \sqrt{(5)^2 + (-2)^2} \]
\[ = \sqrt{25 + 4} \]
\[ = \sqrt{29} \]
Now, calculating \(\sqrt{29}\):
\[ \sqrt{29} \approx 5.385 \]
Rounding this to the nearest hundredth gives us:
\[ d \approx 5.39 \]
Thus, the length between the points (2, 5) and (7, 3) is approximately 5.39.
